The Art of Balance

It can be difficult to keep your balance! Set the picture in motion by giving it a slight knock from one side and stand on one leg in front of it. Is it more difficult to keep your balance when the stripes in the picture move? Does it feel like the room is moving?

A feeling of motion sometimes arises in the body even when we are standing still. Many people have experienced this on a train. You think that the train is starting to leave the station, but then you see that it was instead another train that started to move.
